Muriel’s Hastings

Muriel Matters spent much of her life in Hastings and passed away there in 1969. Below is an interactive map showing some of her work in Hastings. Zoom in and click on the many pins to find out more! If you would like to view a legend of each marker, click on the toggle on the top left of the map.

This interactive map of Hastings is a work in progress; if you have anything to add, please contact The Society. Information on the exact location of the Hollington P.S.A. (Primary School Academy) and the ‘Grand Restaurant, Hastings’ in particular would be greatly appreciated! Both were venues where Muriel once spoke.

A special thanks to Marilyn Saklatvala from the Old Hastings Preservation Society for helping
The Muriel Matters Society create this map.

Women’s Freedom League Caravan Tour
May – June 1908

In 1908, Muriel Matters, along with other members of the Women’s Freedom League (WFL), toured the South East counties of England by caravan. They promoted the benefits of women’s suffrage in rural areas and helped establish new WFL branches along the way. The WFL’s route is marked out using modern roads.

A special thanks to Marie and Chris Maddocks of The Muriel Matters Society for
researching and mapping out the route.

Muriel’s Home and Muriel Matters Council Building in Hastings
East Sussex, United Kingdom

If you’re in the UK, why not visit Muriel Matters’ long-time private residence, or the Hastings Borough Council’s Muriel Matters House?

Muriel lived at 7 Pelham Crescent in Hastings from 1949, following the death of her husband, William Porter, until her death in 1969. Her home is beside St Mary in the Castle, an icon of Hastings and a former church in the neoclassical style, now converted into an arts centre. It is a wonderful part of town with places to eat and shop right next to the seaside. An interesting crypt under the church can also be accessed through the café on street level. You can even get a photo next to Muriel’s Blue Plaque if you like!
